Scrambled Eggs ??

[Topdownbug 0]

One of the things on my list to eat that will help me get my Protein in is scrambled egg beaters (pureed in a blender). I'm sort of confused. I cook the eggs - then puree them.. will they be drinking consistency or just thin? I think I'm missing something here ??

I didn't puree anything. I couldn't think of anything grosser. I've stuck with foods close to puree: Protein Drinks, yogurt, fortified pudding, ect. Once I got to other foods, I just took very small bites and chewed really well. That included scrambled eggs. Personally, I'd rather chew to pureed consistency, rather than drinking a "food shake." My gag reflex would take over otherwise. That's just my opinion though, so that and $5 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

Thanks! I cooked them up and am smooshing them into oblivion with my fork.. then taking tiny bites and making sure everything is pretty smooth before I swallow. I hope this works ok. I'm having a little bit of nausea and I'm trying to get plenty of Protein and fluids to ward off any problems.

Thanks again for your advice

That's what I did too, cook the eggs and mush them with my fork as I ate. Chew the heck out of them. I cooked them a little "soft" so it worked great for me.

Yes, me too. Just cook them to fluffy and then take small bits and smoosh if necessary. I've not had eggs come back up or get stuck. - the bacon did though... yuck.

I'm at the puree stage as well. And the thought of drinking blended eggs just might make me lose a few more pounds..-lol-

Thanks for the replies. I didn't finish the eggs because I took a nap and then woke up nauseous.

I called the Dr about the nausea since I've been doing so well up to today and he said its probably just really low blood sugar and I should be sure to try to eat/drink as much as possible. He also called in a prescription for me for the nausea .. he's a great guy!
